oa L. B. Cards
i -
The speed and accuracy with which you operate a card
record depends to a great extent on the cards themselves.
Cards of good quality, cut to a high degree of precision
cards that do not get "dog-eared" or fuzzy at the top
edge are an aid to good work and increase the value of
your card record.
L. B. Cards are right! They are made by special for
mula which gives them snap and life. They are uniform
in weight and thickness which makes them easily and
quickly handled. '
' They keep their shape and uniformity long after the
ordinary card has curled up and gone.
L'. B. cards are made up in many forms and carried in
stock for all classes of business: cards for sales records,
stock records, purchase records, card ledgers,' insurance
records, credit records, quotation records, follow-up
records, etc. Come in and see them!
